Trevi's Life

Hi everyone! Thanks for checking in on us while we're away! We are having a great time!! Trevi is in heaven and loves everything about Maui! Have I mentioned our daughter loves to be outside?!?! Here's what she has been up to lately!

Brett's amazing photography skills

Brett really should be doing our blogging because he often gets photos like this one from his iPhone, of all things. I can't get photos even close to this pretty or special with my fancy Canon rebel SLR camera. He has a gift!

This was our Maui sunset last night!

Silly girl!!

This is an old post that never made it on the blog so.... Here it is!

Trevi and I spent some time at my parents house today and lets just say we had some fun!! Trevi and I went in the hot tub, we played like crazy, we watched the birds and ducks and we played with my mom's massive collection of reading glasses!

Maui babe

This girl is seriously so happy here and she loves the warm weather! Trevi spends all day outside playing in the water, jumping in puddles, going on walks and enjoying the sun! Trevi is getting more and more comfortable with the sand and will even go for a small walk on the beach!! This has been the best Maui trip yet!

MAUI Love

Maui is definitely my favorite place on the planet! It has everything I want on one perfect little island! Sun, beach, warm weather, nice breezes, no bugs, a beautiful ocean, a variety of terrains and all sorts of climates, fresh food, and best of all the sun.  Did I mention I hate to be cold and I love the sunshine!!!

 Driving to the airport last Thursday! It was beautiful but I am not a fan of 32 degrees. 

Happy we wont be back here for 3 whole weeks!

my slice of heaven!

 She spends ALL day outside!

 dinner fun!

 transporting water!

 she is constantly pointing to all the airplanes!

 reading a story with dad!

Sunny Park Day

It was a rare day here in the PNW because we got some sun!!!! While it hasn't been raining it has been very very very gray which is quite depressing. :( So, Trevi and I decided to seize the day and head to the park to play in the sunshine! Let's be honest... We've got Maui on our mind!!

 WEEKEND FUN!

 we went to the zoo with cousins Val and Bri! This peacock was very brave.

 we spent a long afternoon away from the house at the zoo and running errands so when we got home Trevi was so excited to read a book!

We're Maui bound in 5 days!

 Trevi and I took my parents to the airport and to distract her on the way home I figured she would play with the wrapper on the biscotti.  Surely I did not think she would eat it....

 I really didn't think she would eat it, much less the whole thing...

 boy was I wrong..... !

 My sister gave birth to baby Thomas Heacox Lester on 1.15.13!  He was 8 lb 7 oz and so sweet!

 He's so tiny!

 Trevi and I went to pick them up from the hospital and I would say we did pretty well! They both slept the whole way home!

 playing on the horsey at Grandma's house!

 Bridget and Dutch (6 months) came over the a play date! Trevi (14 months) was very intrigued by the baby!

 Dutch giving Trevi a ride on his car and loaning her his jacket! Such a gentleman!

 I made homemade Chocolate Chip Meringue cookies (check out my post on Kitchen of Kate for the recipe) and I thought I would let Trevi in on the secret of licking the beater! She was very pleased!

 loving the beater! I see a baker in my future!

 I hope these videos work! This is Trevi laughing!

Trevi practicing some of her words and sounds!

 Brett's sister, Michelle, also had a baby girl this past week! Naomi Eden VanSomeren was born on 1.14.13 in Okinawa, Japan!
